Guest- Katherine Blackmore waves the Flag!

My home town has a simple, patriotic Memorial Day Parade every year. My parents timed it once - 17 minutes: plenty of time for our Mayor to toss candy, the Veterans to wave and wipe a tear, the high school band to play, and the girl scouts to march. And the fire truck bringing up the rear came complete with a dalmatian. It was (and is) a sweet time to celebrate freedom and remember those who fell defending it.

"I'm proud to be an American, where at least I know I'm free, and I won't forget the men who died, who gave that right to me..."

Thank you to The Sketchables! for this opportunity to remember... Kathy B.

Sketches always seem so alive. No matter how beautiful the finish -the sketch is the spark of life in the work. Artists thrill to see each others' process. Here we want to share our own sketches and our love of the art of the sketch with you.
